Looking for running friends and activities.

I run for fun at the the moment. I've been running for about 6 months now. I can finish 5ks and even 10ks, exhausted but finish it lol. I haven't participated in an official race yet because there aren't many in my area that I know of but would like to given the opportunity. Also, I was reading about running groups here on the app but I lost the post for it while commenting so if anyone knows any groups, let me know.

You might consider joining the happy group in the monthly running challenge thread:

There's one every month. Some folks from Texas participate too.

PS: If you are exhausted after your run, you are training at too fast a pace. Slow down. You should be able to talk out loud without gasping for air - conversational style - while running your training pace. Save the speed for race day.
